DAY 19: S for "Sunset Skies"

"The Drive Home"
Day 19 PAINTING: Oil on panel 6"x14"

"S" is for "Sunset Sky"

I want to paint more skies. They can be so beautiful. I like to tell God when he does a good job on his skies. The cold clear days we have had recently have made for some beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Skies are hard to paint, well especially when lots of clouds are involved. I need to learn to blend colors from dark to light with soft transitions. I have seen beautiful paintings of dramatic skies with such minimal simple landscapes. I want to improve at doing this. So here is one of hopefully many to come palouse skies.
